Not done a cooking comp for ages but might try and join this one!

Always wanted but never got round to making a curry from scratch, I might give this a go

[danpalmer1993]

I should be in, is it just a picture of the final dish?

[21TonyK]

Normally 3 pics, ingredients, cooking and final plate.

I might well be in on this, for a bit of fun, and to see what everyone else comes up with.

I love making a curry from scratch but haven't done one for a few weeks.

[oldbanger]

My favourite dish ... and I haven't cooked a curry from scratch for a few years now

I think you should!

It's one of my favourite things in life, making a curry whilst listening to Planet Rock on the radio and supping few real ales.


Are we allowed more than one entry?

[mattdaniels]

Here's my entry. Spiced cod with curried cauliflower and mango. Difficult to select only 3 pics as there were so many steps involved in the cooking.

Looks amazing! Is it served on the base of a cake tin?!

[MiniMan64]

Not usually a fan of meatless but this is smelling pretty damm good.

Didn't take any pics though...

Damn, rumbled

The recipe showed it plated up on a black plate and I don't have any so I improvised.

Should I report you to "We want plates"?

Drat forgot to take pics as I was cooking it! Oh well I don't expect to win.

And the finished dish.

[Martin350]

Here's my effort from this evening - chicken biryani, with tomato, cucumber and red onion salad, cucumber raita and poppadoms.

It was very flavoursome, and it wasn't supposed to be hot, but I prefer my curries a little hotter than this one, although it was still rather yummy!

Beautifully presented dish, but I cannot,get your flakey non stick fry pan out of my mind. Me thinks it might be due for a replacement

[Pferdestarke]

Yes my alarms we're going off there too. Love a flake or two of teflon.

[mattdaniels]

It's only a year old too £100 worth of Le Creuset's finest apparently doesn't like finishing dishes off under the grill and the rim has started to delaminate. Oops.

[spikeyhead]

Bugger, only just seen this thread and made a lovely lamb curry yesterday. I guess it's a good excuse to make some more.

Could you post up the recipe you used for the curry sauce please?

I quite fancy making this.
